Drugstore makeup is having a moment and foundations have never been so in-demand and on par with higher-end formulas that likely cost triple the price. With a wide array of options from almost every beauty brand, it can be a challenge to figure out which formulas will be the best for your skin types as well as preference. It can also be hard to discern which ones will provide what level of desired coverage (full, medium, light) and finish (dewy, matte, satin), have decent wear time and which ones are actually good for your skin.
If you have combination skin (which generally means you tend to get oily in the T-zone area and feel normal to dry on the other areas of your face), you’ll love these wallet-friendly foundation that aren’t overly matte, but won’t leave you looking like an oil slick mid-day either.
Our mission at STYLECASTER is to bring style to the people, and we only feature products we think you’ll love as much as we do. Please note that if you purchase something by clicking on a link within this story, we may receive a small commission of the sale.
